How the tool works
Choose one-file-per-page or enter groups separated by semicolons, for example 1-3; 4-6; 7. GOTOVO creates one PDF per group and packages the results into a ZIP.
Three steps
Open the matching PDF Workshop mode.
Add the PDF and choose the operation settings.
Review the result and download the new copy.
Limitations and important details
Ranges refer to physical PDF page numbers starting at 1. The tool does not infer document boundaries or automatically classify pages by content.
Local processing and result checks
GOTOVO processes the selected PDF directly in your browser, so the source document does not need to be uploaded to our server. The original file is never overwritten; the result is created as a separate copy, making it easy to compare or retry with different settings. Performance depends on PDF size, page count and available device memory, especially for OCR, strong compression and secure redaction. After any operation, open the downloaded file and review the required pages, orientation, readability and important interactive elements before sending it to another person or uploading it to an official service. For documents containing personal or business-sensitive information, local processing also reduces unnecessary transfer of the source file to third parties.
Frequently asked questions
Can I create one PDF per page?
Yes. Enable the every-page option.
How do I enter several ranges?
For example: 1-3; 4-6; 7. Each range becomes its own PDF.
Does splitting reduce quality?
No. Normal splitting copies PDF pages without rasterizing them.
